Next question, the taste test…
Oh, I beg to differ:
Ha, I’d forgotten about that. “Microdeckia.” Good stuff.
Not to mention terroir, varietal and even vintage.
I sometimes can’t tell the difference between factual information in medical threads and Bob Ducca ailments.
I’ve gagged from the smell of it that lingered on a coworker’s scrubs.
I’ve never smelled anything worse. I’ve heard stories about some kind of perianal cyst, but I never, never want to confirm them.
Pilonidal and other rectal cyst/abscesses got nuthin on gas gangrene, man. Been there with all of 'em. Gangrene’s the worst.
Held a little girl 4year old ) at the Hoa Kahne clinic for about 3 hours, She had been burned by a flare on her chest and by the time she was brought to the clinic she had gangrene and it was to late to save her. She died a couple days later . As bad as the smell was my nose got used to it in a while. It was the only time during the Vietnam war that I cried !
Why am I thinking of my ex-wife here? She called it a peach, I said rotten apple, and here we are.
I wonder if you could make synthetic gangrene and use it in as a kind of non lethal germ warfare spray.
Probably even the threat of using it would have the enemy surrendering.
Really? Gangrene is bad but I always found perirectal abscesses much worse. I recall a horseshoe abscess that sprayed a friend of mine straight in the chest (splashed under his mask a bit too) that still ranks as the all time number 1 worst smell I’ve encountered. It pretty much cleared the room and my buddy nearly hit the floor.
Dead gut diarrhea also deserves an honorable mention.
Heh, any other nominations?
“So he hurriedly finished his time machine to stop himself from clicking on the OB/GYN ‘smell test’ thread, only to be thwarted by time-travel sickness compounded by the infinite nausea his stomach had been tossed into.”
Interesting! What’s that one smell like?
Y’all are all wrong- She is subtly paying homage to one of the great rock albums of our time.
Had a loop of gangrenous bowel explode in my face during surgical resection, as a resident. Now that was combining the worst of most possible worlds.
Jesus Christ!
Tell us more. I’m eating chili.
I just try to take things one day at a time.
Reminds me of an old joke…
Gynecologist: “Don’t be nervous. I’ll numb your vagina before I begin the examination.”
Woman: “Thank you Doctor!”
Gynecologist: num, num, num, num, num, num…
I recently detected lung cancer in my girlfriend because of a change of the smell in her breath. Dr said we caught it at the earliest possible stages and after surgery no further treatment was needed besides scheduled follow ups.
